Description
-
This chapter of the book focuses on discussing the good government of post-conquest Peru that the Spanish viceroys maintained. This image depicts Martin Garcia de Loyola taking Topa Amaro Inca captive under the orders of the viceroy, Don Francisco de Toledo. Martin Garcia de Loyola was Don Francisco’s captain of the guard and was instructed to capture the Inca as well as his loyal captains. This image illustrated two Spanish guards wearing full suits of armour and carrying spears. Martin Garcia has the word loyola written on his arm to identify him. The other guard is illustrated carrying a huaca [sacred object] belonging to the Inca in his left hand. Martin Garcia is holding a chain in his left hand that is bound to the young captured Inca who is walking behind the two guards. The Inca is dressed in traditional regalia. The caption at the bottom of the image reads, en el cuzco [in Cusco].
